Please let me know your thoughts.

I have put 19" Breyton Spirit's wheels with Bridgestone S-03 Potenza's, a B&B Exhaust, 35% Tints. I am thinking about getting M Aerokit.

Do I need to lower the car? Anyone

Thanks,

IMO it looks good the way it is. Especially if you get the M kit, should look a lot lower. I have almost the same set-up as yours, 19" M Parallel but not lowered (I get a lot of passengers). I would like to add on the M Kit as well in a couple of months.

Looks good but IMO you should still lower the car. It will be perfect once you cover the gap.

Great looking ride........you already have low profile tires, don't lower it any further, but of course thats a decision you'll have to make.

Great pix of the 45

Hi!
I agree with rodneyremington.
I think the Sport package would be help more as the M-Aerokit.
